<h1>AspectJ Documentation and Resources</h1>
<p/>
AspectJ <sup><small>tm</small></sup>
is a seamless aspect-oriented extension to
Java<sup><small>tm</small></sup>.
The compiler and development tools are available under
an open-source license, require Java 1.3 to run, and produce
code that runs in JDK 1.1 and later VM's.
For the latest materials, see
<a href="http://eclipse.org/aspectj">http://eclipse.org/aspectj</a>.
Not all of these materials have been updated for AspectJ 5.

<h3>Suggested paths for those new to AspectJ</h3>
<p/>
To learn the AspectJ language, read the
<a href="progguide/index.html">Programming Guide</a>,
keeping the <a href="progguide/semantics.html">Semantics appendix</a>
nearby as the best reference for AspectJ usage.
Focus initially on the join point model and
pointcuts, concepts AOP adds to OOP.
To read about how the <a href="examples/">examples</a> work,
see the <a href="progguide/examples.html">Examples </a> section
in the <a href="progguide/index.html">Programming Guide</a>.
View and navigate the crosscutting structure using
<a href="http://eclipse.org/ajdt">AJDT</a>; if you can't use Eclipse, try
the <code>ajbrowser</code> structure viewer, as described in
the <a href="devguide/ajbrowser.html">AspectJ Browser</a> section of
the <a href="devguide/index.html">Development Environment Guide</a>.
<p/>
To start using AspectJ with your own code,
modify the example aspects to apply to your classes.
As you learn,
use the compiler's <code>-Xlint</code> flags to catch some common
mistakes. (Understand that the
<a href="progguide/implementation.html">current implementation</a>
is limited to code the compiler controls.)
<p>
To plan how to adopt AspectJ into a project, read the
<a href="progguide/index.html">Programming Guide</a>
on development- and production-time aspects
and the <a href="faq.html">FAQ</a> entries for
<a href="faq.html#q:startUsingAJ">How should I start using AspectJ?</a>,
<a href="faq.html#adoption">Deciding to adopt AspectJ</a>,
the Development tools sections
(<a href="faq.html#q:integrateWithDevTools">one</a>,
<a href="faq.html#devtools">two</a>,
<a href="faq.html#ltw">Load-time weaving</a>
), and
<a href="faq.html#q:opensource">AspectJ as open-source</a>.

<p>
Enjoy the language!
